Teledentistry Global Market Report 2024

The teledentistry market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.77 billion in 2023 to $2.08 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.4%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including strong economic growth in emerging markets, increased demand for remote healthcare services, and a rise in government support for teledentistry initiatives.

The teledentistry market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.08 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.3%. Forecasted growth is driven by the increasing burden of oral diseases, government initiatives to enhance oral health, and a growing aging population. Key trends include rising investments, adoption of robots in food preparation, a focus on healthier French fries options, product innovations, and the launch of French fries suitable for vegan diets.

The rising prevalence of oral diseases is indeed a significant factor propelling the growth of the teledentistry market. Teledentistry plays a vital role in expanding access to oral health services, thereby contributing to the improved treatment and management of various oral diseases. For instance, statistics from the American Cancer Society in 2022 revealed approximately 54,000 new cases of oral cavity or oropharyngeal cancer, resulting in 11,200 deaths in the United States. This highlights the critical need for accessible and efficient oral health care solutions, thus driving the expansion of the teledentistry market to address such pressing healthcare demands.

Increasing government initiatives aimed at enhancing oral health are anticipated to further bolster the teledentistry market in the foreseeable future. A notable example is the Canadian government's proactive measures in this domain. The introduction of the Canada Dental Benefit signifies a crucial step in providing financial support to eligible families, specifically targeting children under 12 years of age, to alleviate dental expenses. Moreover, the recently announced Budget 2023 in Canada underscores a commitment to support up to 9 million uninsured Canadians from families with an annual income below $90,000, ensuring they have access to essential dental care services. These initiatives reflect a concerted effort by governments to address oral health disparities and improve access to dental care, consequently positively impacting the growth trajectory of the teledentistry market.

A prominent trend is the integration of technological advancements. Major market players, such as SmileDirectClub Inc., are leveraging innovation, exemplified by the introduction of 'SmileOS' in November 2021. This artificial intelligence-based treatment planning software enhances the capabilities of associated dentists and orthodontists, enabling them to provide treatment to a wider patient base in remote locations. The SmileOS platform utilizes artificial intelligence driven by information gathered from over 1.5 million clear aligner treatment programs.

Companies in the teledentistry sector are strategically focusing on technological innovation to expand their product portfolios and maintain market leadership.

This groundbreaking offering reshapes the landscape of dental healthcare by granting patients unparalleled access to comprehensive preventive and diagnostic dental evaluations, accessible anytime and anywhere.
